Pressure Effect Studies on the Spin‐Transition Behavior of a Dinuclear Iron(II) Compound
2013
Magnetic studies into the effect of different hydrostatic pressures between ambient and 1.03 GPa on the high-spin (HS) i low-spin (LS) transition behavior of the dinuclear iron(II) compound [Fe II 2(PMAT)2](BF4)4·DMF (1, PMAT = 4-amino3,5-bis{[(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]methyl}-4H-1,2,4-triazole, DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) have been carried out at 2– 300 K. Under ambient pressure, the sample studied exhibits a [HS–HS] to [HS–LS] half spin transition (ST) at T½ = 208 K without any thermal hysteresis. Increasing the pressure above 0.2 GPa causes an increase (initially rapid but above 0.5 GPa more gradual) of T½ as well as a matching reduction in the residual high-spin fraction at room temperatu…
Iron(II) Spin Transition Complexes with Dendritic Ligands, Part I
2008
The ligands G1- and G2-oligo (benzyl ether) (PBE) dendrons and their iron(II) complexes [Fe(Gn-PBE)3]A2·xH2O (with n = 1, 2 and A = triflate, tosylate) were prepared. The magnetic properties of the complexes were investigated by a SQUID magnetometer. All complexes exhibit gradual spin transition below room temperature. At very low temperatures the magnetic behaviour reflects zero-field splitting (ZFS) effects. 57Fe-Mossbauer spectroscopy was performed to distinguish between ZFS of high spin species and spin state conversion into the low spin state. Further characterisation was carried out by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and FT-IR spectroscopy. Structural features have been determined by…
Multifunctional magnetic materials obtained by insertion of spin-crossover Fe(III) complexes into chiral 3D bimetallic oxalate-based ferromagnets.
2011
The syntheses, structures, and magnetic properties of compounds of formula [Fe(III)(5-Clsal(2)-trien)][Mn(II)Cr(III)(ox)(3)]·0.5(CH(3)NO(2)) (1), [Fe(III)(5-Brsal(2)-trien)][Mn(II)Cr(III)(ox)(3)] (2), and [In(III)(5-Clsal(2)-trien)][Mn(II)Cr(III)(ox)(3)] (3) are reported. The structure of the three compounds, which crystallize in the orthorhombic P2(1)2(1)2(1) chiral space group, presents a 3D chiral anionic network formed by Mn(II) and Cr(III) ions linked through oxalate ligands with inserted [Fe(III)(5-Clsal(2)-trien)](+), [Fe(III)(5-Brsal(2)-trien)](+), and [In(III)(5-Clsal(2)-trien)](+) cations. The magnetic properties indicate that the three compounds undergo long-range ferromagnetic o…
Synthesis and characterization of [Fe(III)(qsal)2][M(III)(pds)2] (M=Cu, Au)
2007
Abstract Salts of the Fe(III) spin crossover cation [FeIII(qsal)2]+ (qsalH = N-(8-quinolyl)salicylaldimine) and monoanions [MIII(pds)2]− (M = Cu, Au; pds = pirazine-2,3-diselenolate) with formula [FeIII(qsal)2][MIII(pds)2] were prepared and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. These two salts present magnetic properties essentially due to the FeIII centres in the high-spin state (S = 5/2), and do not have any spin transition.
Electronic Relaxation Phenomena Following 57Co(EC)57Fe Nuclear Decay in [MnII(terpy)2](ClO4)2·1/2H2O and in the Spin Crossover Complexes [CoII(terpy)…
2001
The valence states of the nucleogenic 57Fe arising from the nuclear disintegration of radioactive 57Co by electron capture decay, 57Co(EC)57Fe, have been studied by Mossbauer emission spectroscopy (MES) in the 57Co-labeled systems: [57Co/Co(terpy)2]Cl2·5H2O (1), [57Co/Co(terpy)2](ClO4)2·1/2H2O (2), and [57Co/Mn(terpy)2](ClO4)2· 1/2H2O (3) (terpy = 2,2‘:6‘,2‘ ‘-terpyridine). The compounds 1, 2, and 3 were labeled with ca. 1 mCi of 57Co and were used as the Mossbauer sources at variable temperatures between 300 K and ca. 4 K. [Fe(terpy)2]X2 is a diamagnetic low-spin (LS) complex, independent of the nature of the anion X, while [Co(terpy)2]X2 complexes show gradual spin transition as the temp…
The Effect of Pressure on the Cooperative Spin Transition in the 2D Coordination Polymer {Fe(phpy) 2 [Ni(CN) 4 ]}
2013
The effect of pressure on the spin-transition properties of the 2D coordination polymer {Fe(phpy)2[Ni(CN)4]} is reported. The study has been carried out by means of variable-temperature (10–310 K) magnetic susceptibility measurements at applied pressures of 105 Pa to 1.0 GPa and spectroscopic studies in the visible region at room temperature (105 Pa–3.0 GPa). As the pressure is increased, the characteristic temperature of the spin transition is displaced to higher temperatures and the thermal hysteresis loop disappears. A cooperative first-order spin transition characterized by a piezo-hysteresis loop about 0.3 GPa wide was observed at 293 K.
A Family of Dinuclear Iron(II) SCO Compounds Based on a 1,3,4‐Thiadiazole Bridging Ligand
2015
A new family of dinuclear iron(II) spin-crossover (SCO) compounds with the formula [Fe2(μ-L)2]X4, with three different counteranions [X = BF4– (1), ClO4– (2) and F3CSO3– (3)], was prepared and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility and Mossbauer measurements. These are the first dinuclear iron(II) SCO complexes with a 1,3,4-thiadiazole bridging ligand L {with L = 2,5-bis[(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole}. The magnetic measurements reveal a gradual and incomplete SCO of the three compounds around room temperature, starting from a diamagnetic [LS–LS] state. The diamagnetic ground state is in agreement with the single-crys…
Synthesis of Nanocrystals and Particle Size Effects Studies on the Thermally Induced Spin Transition of the Model Spin Crossover Compound [Fe(phen)2(…
2015
Surfactant-free nanocrystals of the model spin-crossover compound [Fe(phen)2(NCS)2] (phen: 1,10-phenanthroline) have been synthesized applying the reverse micelle technique. The morphology of the nanocrystals, characterized by scanning electronic microscopy, corresponds to rhombohedric platelets with dimensions ranging from 203 × 203 × 106 nm to 142 × 142 × 74 nm. Variation of the concentration of the Fe(BF4)2·6H2O salt in the synthesis has been found to have little influence on the crystallite size. In contrast, the solvent-surfactant ratio (ω) is critical for a good particle growth. The spin transition of the nanocrystals has been characterized by magnetic susceptibility measurements and …
High-temperature spin crossover in a mononuclear six-coordinate cobalt(II) complex.
2014
The six-coordinate cobalt(II) complex of formula [Co(tppz)2](tcm)2 exhibits a thermally induced spin-crossover behavior from a high spin (S = 3/2) at higher temperatures to a low spin (S = 1/2) at lower temperatures, with the low-spin phase being achieved at T ≤ 200 K.

2000
[Fe(btzp)3](ClO4)2 (btzp = 1,2-bis(tetrazol-1-yl)propane) represents the first structurally characterized Fe(II) linear chain compound exhibiting thermal spin crossover. It shows a very gradual spin transition (T1/2 = 130 K) which has been followed by magnetic susceptibility measurements and 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. The structure has been solved at 200 and 100 K by single-crystal X-ray analysis. It crystallizes in the trigonal space group P3c1 with Z = 2 Fe(II) units at both temperatures. The molecular structure consists of chains running along the c axis in which the Fe(II) ions are linked by three N4,N4' coordinating bis(tetrazole) ligands. The main difference between the two forms ap…
